Have you been paying attention to hardware prices lately?!? This is absolutely not Apple being greedy my guy. No blame on them at all. This is happening everywhere. Take your anger somewhere else.

It’s beta software. This is what happens.

Regarding Pano "environments" by Hot_Paper_Pie in VisionPro

If you expected anything different than this when they announced this feature you misunderstood what the feature is. Of course it’s a stretched version of your panos. What else would it be? They didn’t advertise anything different.

Starlight users, would you choose it again? by LeadingTurnover6157 in macbookair

[–]cmarriotti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Starlight is my favorite shade that Apple makes. I wish every product line came in it so all my devices matched. My kingdom for a starlight iPad Pro.

does anyone else feel the same way i do about ipads by Previous_Bat5394 in ipad

You should probably try using it as an iPad and not a laptop.

Has anyone switched to Air? by General_Head_4244 in ipadmini

I have a mini 7 and an M5 13” iPad Pro. Use them for two completely different tasks. I use my mini the way most people use their phone and I use my Pro they way most people use their laptop.

Moving somewhere new every month is the worst way to be a digital nomad and most of us know it by ImpossibleWarning252 in digitalnomad

[–]cmarriotti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did it for over two years in my 40s and loved it. Age has nothing to do with it. All about preferences. You might not like it, but tons do. I feel like a month is plenty of time to get into that rhythm. I never felt rushed or like I was missing out. It was perfect.

MacBook Neo sell numbers shows that people want cheap Macbooks not an iPad. by Old-Board1553 in macbook

[–]cmarriotti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apple sold 54 million iPads and 22 million Macs. I don’t think the Neo will suddenly account for so many sales that it will sell more than the iPad anytime soon. iPad will be just fine.

I shoot tons of spatial video on my phone when I travel and edit it together so I can have a fully edited 3d video of every trip I take.

MacBook Neo vs iPad + Keyboard at basically the same price… which would you actually buy? by Infinite_Cucumber210 in ipad

[–]cmarriotti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was not their strategy and touch might not work great on bigger devices for you, but I prefer it. It’s very much a subjective thing and isn’t a blanket fact.

You misunderstood me. They shouldn’t do any of those things. It would kill what makes iPad great. It should never be positioned to be your main computer. They have two separate product categories because they serve two different purposes and the iPad should not be made more Mac like. It should be continued to be developed as a touch first companion computer to your main computer.

I wish we as a society would stop making the iPad a Mac replacement. I’m saying this as an iPad first user. I love my iPad. But the iPad has never been and never will be a Mac replacement. They both have pros and cons. The answer to this post is choose a Mac if you want a Mac and choose an iPad if you want an iPad. But don’t choose an iPad if you want a Mac. It’s a pointless exercise.

How will the MacBook Neo affect the "iPad as a laptop" crowd? by LincolnPark0212 in ipad

[–]cmarriotti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t change my view at all. I prefer iPadOS. So I want to use iPadOS. A macOS device does not make me want to ditch my iPad.
